Can't they at least take the "energy" off the name of it? Progress Center for the Performing Arts sounds much better then Progress Energy Center for the Performing Arts....

I agree NCMike, sounds kind of corny.

I also have another thought on this as well. I love the money and the example they are setting in DT Raleigh for other HQ based companies to invest in the area.

If Raleigh had 2-3 more HQ DT, think about the floodgate that would open into this market. Maybe even just one more could start the ball rolling. I give them the credit for coming into a dead area like DT and really making things happen...More are sure to follow. And with this being said I really don't mind the name. By the way, I have seen Progress energy commercials on local tv in Richmond Va, makes me wonder if they are headed here next.
